Having a similar position and function as Central Park in Manhattan, but unlike the modern box-like buildings that only create a separation between the park and the city, Chaoyang Park Plaza instead is an expansion of nature. It is an extension of the park into the city, naturalizing the CBD's strong artificial skyline, borrowing scenery from a distant landscape - a classical approach to Chinese garden architecture, where nature and architecture blend into one another. The asymmetrical twin tower office buildings on the north side of the site, sit at the base of the park's lake and are like two mountain peaks growing out of the water.
